Tydeus' Complete Damage Calculator- Made Possible by cmp.

[Tydeus]

I actually made this a few months ago when I was trying to figure out what archery damage actually looked like, I updated it a bit since then but not much has really changed. As far as any game mechanics code goes, it's all done by cmp. The only thing I did was plug this into a python script, allow the user to input settings and allow you to see relevant information. This was also the first time I had ever even touched python so, don't be blame me too much for how bad it is.

Anyway, here's the code. Just copy and paste this into notepad and give it a name with ".py" at the end. This was made with python version 2.7.2 which you need to run this script, which you can get here: http://www.python.org/download/

It's not as pretty as Vargas' Toolkit, which is a great tool for calculating builds and whatnot, but it's a bit more complete and customizable in that you can see realistic numbers.

How to use:
Once you get python installed and you've copied over the code and saved it as a python script, double click the icon to launch the script. Inputs are all done numerically, don't try to input anything aside from numbers you'll just get errors that way.

Known issues:

• It's fucking ugly
• There are no pretty graphs
• I'm not 100% sure on ranged damage numbers because of the screwy speed bonus. Therefore I suggest going with "0" for a speed bonus(Though cmp suggested just using "1").
• Currently it doesn't allow you to select a body location to test damage.

If anyone has any suggestions or questions feel free to post, thanks.

 do it in php, javascript or some other web based format

I should have just updated Vargas' Toolkit then. That would have ended up being more of a pain in the end. I made this simply because of how easy it was to do.

and only a handful of people are going to go thru the trouble of using it, so its about useless.  excel spreadsheet is more friendly

Pretty much expected this from the beginning, yeah.

At a minimum, I think anyone interested in game mechanics should take a look at the code. Its got some stuff in there that's contrary to popular belief or would otherwise be rather counter intuitive.

Hell man, this is python, not cobol, think OO

Cool though x)

[Balton]

Very cool +1

[Paul]

Average damage is not (min+max)/2.

[Espu]

I'll copy this to my calculator and won't add credits.

[Jacko]

It' needs to be pretty.

[Vibe]

Do it, schneller!

Pfft, as if you know anything about this game, Mr. Claiming that AGI does not effect swing speed  (just ignore your findings in 0.808)

it says with a 6 difficulty bow with 35 pierce(longbow+1 and bodkin+3), 1% speed bonus,7 pd, no rain penality, 150 wpf and 60 enemy's armor I should do from a minimum of 70 to a maximum of 100 effective damage, seems something is wrong

[MrShine]

cool I'll have to give this a shot when I get a chance.

Thanks for posting!

Working as intended!

Yeah, that's cause you used "1" as your speed bonus. Like I said, for ranged the speed bonus part isn't very intuitive. Arrows start out at max damage and only decrease over time.
